Fight With Scott Hall Breaks Out At Iron Sheik Roast

Written by: Tim Brown - October 11th, 2008

To no one’s surprise, the Legends Of The Ring VII event in New Jersey attended by Iron Sheik, Scott Hall, Ric Flair and others ended in controversy. During the Iron Sheik’s roast, the night turned ugly when a comedian made what was described as a "tasteless Owen Hart joke." This prompted Scott Hall to get up and go after the comedian. Apparently punches were thrown but no arrests were made. The following YouTube videos show the aftermath of the incident with Hall.

Scott Halls talks in slow motion.

[Crippler]

Scott Halls talks in slow motion.

And lives his gimmick too much...alright, we saw the first crotch chop...this comedian isn't getting his feelings hurt by "down here" reference. Christ, get over yourself. If you were that offended by the comment, say your peace, take a swing if you feel you need to, & walk out...quit playing to the crowd that was only half behind you anyway, you drunken idiot.

[Sue_Bender]

What was the joke?

That "Bill Apter is deader than Owen Hart."

Good stuff from a guy who has opened for Lil' Jimmy...and apparently has been on O&A.

[Sue_Bender]

he said shieks career fell faster than owen hart.:thumbdown:

That's the "better" joke.

I read otherwise. But everything on the interhighweb is phony.

I was just guessing at what might have been said.

[Doctor Z]

Jesus that was depressing.

Kudos for Scott Hall for standing up to a crass joke involving someone's death. I'm sure if that comedian said something to the effects of "The Sheik's career fell faster than the Twin Towers", I bet no one would be laughing. And what would that comedian's reply be- "Sit your ass down, it was only a joke". Fuck him, he didn't know Owen Hart and Scott Hall did. A joke is funny when no one knows the people, it's personal if you do. I'm sure some other people took offense to the joke, not only Scott Hall.

exactly. even though the term funny is subjective you can make pretty much everything funny. there was no hate whatsoever behind that guy's joke. Hall was a bumbling drunken idiot taking things way too far. hall is the douche here, not the comedian.

[Sinestro]

nah, i have heard a few that were funny.

Care to post a few?

[The Jays]

what falls faster, the Dow or Owen Hart?

At least when the Dow crashes, it rises back up eventually.

[Dougie Brootal]

boomshakalaka!

[CruelCircus]

Care to post a few?

Gilbert Gottfried's infamous joke at the Hugh Hefner roast was pretty good.

[Don Stugots]

I agree 100% with this statement

[Space Edge]

I was just listening to Sunday nights Miserable Men show on Howard 101 and Rev. Bob Levy told the story and talked about what happened.

[Death Metal Moe]

I fucking HATE people with "Comedy Limits" and people who show "Fake Offense" when they think they should.

What's funny to some isn't to others, but I shouldn't be limited to only what you find funny because you chose to draw a line in the comedy sand.

Deal with it.

[CYYYFYYY]

You know wrestlers are there who may know Owen then you do not make a joke of it. Just wrong. For once I agree with Scott Hall. The guy said it was just a joke. Have a brain don;t mock dead wrestlers when people there know them.

[CruelCircus]

What joke was that???

He said that he was supposed to fly in from Boston but decided not to because there was a stopover at the Empire State Building.

The uncomfortableness that followed led to him doing the "Aristocrats" joke that later was in the "Aristocrats" movie.

[Space Edge]

It's April 27th O&A talked about this today way to keep up with the current stories (it happened in Oct. 2008)
